"Mr. Liu, are you going to go directly to the museum or go back to the Lin family's old house first?" On the way, Li Fang asked.

"The master still works in the museum? Or you send me to Rong Bao Zhai, and then you go back. Wait until the evening to get over. Liu Tao said.

"Okay." Li Fang nodded.

When the car was about to arrive at Rong Bao Zhai, Liu Tao asked Li Fang to stop, and then he got out of the car.

Li Fang said goodbye to him and drove away.

Liu Tao waited until he left, the true qi in his body moved slightly, and his appearance immediately changed to a different appearance.

That way, he doesn't have to worry about being recognized.

Rong Bao Zhai does not have many guests.

Liu Tao had missed it here twice, and this time he came to try his luck.

He's not bad for money. If there is something good, he must be willing to spend it. But there are some things that money can't buy.

is like that painting in the water, even if someone offers 500 million, he will not sell 100 million.

There are some things that are far from being measured by money.

He didn't expect to be able to pick up a rare treasure of the level of water painting again, after all, the chances were too slim.

He wandered around the shop for a while, but found nothing.

That's when someone came in and pawned something. You must know that Rong Bao Zhai is not only an antique shop, but also a pawn shop. If someone is short of money, they can take out what they have and pawn it. When you have money, you can redeem it. Of course, interest is indispensable.

Life can be redeemed, but death is not. Death is equivalent to the sale of this thing, and it has nothing to do with the original owner.

Naturally, the clerk has no way to value the antiques brought by the guests, so he naturally has to invite experts to come and appraise them.

The three experts of Rong Bao Zhai, Liu Tao have all seen. The vision is okay. Otherwise, he would not have been hired by Rong Bao Zhai.

The expert carefully observed the object with a magnifying glass and finally came to the conclusion that the object was a high imitation. There is no great value, only willing to bid 10,000 yuan, and it is still dead.

"Are you mistaken? Is this box a high imitation? This is a family heirloom. The seller said.

"Can't heirlooms be imitated? You should be a high imitation of the Qing Dynasty. It is also two hundred years old. As a family heirloom, it's okay. The expert said.

"If I hadn't waited for the money, I wouldn't have sent it over and pawned it. Can you give more? The seller discussed.

"10,000 yuan is the highest price I gave." The expert shook his head and said.

"10,000 is fine. Give cash? The seller thought for a moment and asked.

"Yes. If you decide to sell, we'll give you 10,000 now. The expert nodded and said.

"Wait!" At this time, Liu Tao opened his mouth.

"Is there anything wrong with you, sir?" The expert glanced at Liu Tao and felt very unfamiliar.

"I fell in love with this box. I'm willing to pay a higher price for it. Liu Tao smiled slightly and said.

"Really? How much are you willing to pay? The seller asked impatiently. He is now in a hurry to wait for the money, and if someone is willing to pay a higher price, he will naturally not be able to ask for it.

"Twenty thousand." Liu Tao said.

"Good! Did you bring cash? If you bring it, we'll trade it right away. When the seller heard this, his heart was overjoyed.

"Young man, do you know what this place is? How dare you steal business here. Do you not understand the rules? The expert asked with a gloomy face.

"Did he sell this to you?" Liu Tao asked.

"Not yet." The expert replied.

"That's right! Whether he sold it to you or not, I naturally have time to bid now. If you don't want me to buy it, you can pay a higher price. Liu Tao said with a smile.

After listening to his words, the expert chuckled in his heart.

It seems that the two people in front of him may be singing double reeds. One came to sell, and the other pretended to bid on the side, and eventually raised the price.

In this way, Rong Bao Zhai will spend more money to buy this thing.

He must not fall for the other party.

"Ten thousand. Rong Bao Zhai will give 10,000 yuan. If you're willing to buy it, you can buy it for 20,000 yuan. The expert said.

"I don't have that much cash right now? Can you come with me to a nearby bank? I'll take the money for you. Liu Tao discussed with the seller.

"Okay." The seller readily agreed.

"Act! Keep acting! The expert said secretly in his heart. If Liu Tao really wants to buy it, why do you need to go outside to withdraw money. It seems that the other party already knows that the plan has been seen through by him, so he can only swallow the bitter fruit of his own brewing.

When the other party comes back, he won't even give out 10,000 yuan.

He was confident that the other party would definitely come back. Because except for Rong Bao Zhai, I'm afraid that there won't even be 10,000 yuan in other places.

This kind of high-imitation items can only get a higher premium in Rong Bao Zhai. If you really buy it at this price, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to make money.

At this time, Liu Tao and the seller came to a nearby bank.

Liu Tao is a VIP customer of the bank, so he doesn't have to queue up at all. I went directly to the VIP window to handle the withdrawal business.

20,000 yuan is really not even comparable to a hair for him.

"Why are you selling this thing? I just heard that you are in a hurry to use the money? Liu Tao asked while withdrawing the money.

"Yes! My wife was in a car accident and is now being resuscitated in the hospital. The hospital asked for a deposit of 30,000 yuan, but I only had 20,000 yuan in my hand, and there was 10,000 yuan less. The seller replied.

"Listening to the accent, you should be a native of the capital. How can you not even have 30,000 yuan at home? It's okay for relatives and friends to borrow it. Liu Tao said.

"That's a long story. I'll tell you if I have the chance in the future. The seller said.

"Is 30,000 yuan enough?" Liu Tao asked.

"I don't know yet. The hospital asked me to pay a deposit of 30,000 yuan, and I will find a way when it is not enough. The seller said.

"Please take another 100,000 for me." Liu Tao said to the staff of the bank.

Soon, Liu Tao took a total of 120,000 yuan.

He handed the seller all 120,000 yuan and said, "This money should be enough." ”

"What are you doing here? Didn't we say 20,000 yuan? Why are you giving me so much. The seller pushed away.

"100,000 yuan is nothing to me. But for you, 100,000 dollars can do a lot. Liu Tao said.

"I didn't expect it...... I didn't expect to meet such a nice person as you. I don't even know what to say. The seller burst into tears. You must know that this society is indifferent, not to mention strangers, even between relatives and friends.

"Nothing. You take this money, go and save people. Liu Tao said.

"Something for you. If I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay you. The seller said as he stuffed the box in his hand into Liu Tao's hand.

"Grace is not expected to be reciprocated. You'd better hurry up. If there is fate, I will see you again. Liu Tao said.

"Yes. Goodbye, benefactor. The seller collected the money and left quickly.

Liu Tao waited until he left, looked at the box in his hand, and a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He originally wanted to give the other party more, but considering that the other party felt that there was something greasy in it, maybe he wouldn't sell it. At that point, he will cause more trouble for himself.

Rong Bao Zhai experts gave 10,000 yuan, and Liu Tao spent 120,000 yuan. Could it be that Liu Tao is really a fool?

The answer is no.

The eye of the sky can allow Liu Tao to see the true value of each antique.

This box does look like a high-quality imitation on the surface, but there is a hole in it.

Liu Tao didn't have any tools in his hand, so naturally there was no way to restore this thing to its original appearance. He put his things away and returned to Rong Bao Zhai.

At this time, the expert was chatting with the clerks, telling them about the double reed played by the two sellers just now, and the little girls who were amused were laughing one by one.

At this time, when he saw Liu Tao coming back, the expert smiled and asked, "Is the thing in hand?" ”

"Yes." Liu Tao nodded.

"Spent 20,000 yuan?" The expert then asked. There are really a lot of wrongs now, and I took out 10,000 yuan for nothing.

"A little more." Liu Tao smiled slightly and said.

"What? Do you give more? Do you have a ...... brain," the expert said, feeling that what he said was not appropriate, and stopped his mouth in time.

"He has an urgent matter at home, so he should give a little more." Liu Tao said with a smile.

"Are you two singing a double reed? Where is he? The expert asked with a smile.

"Double reeds? What double reed? Do you think the two of us are alike? Liu Tao asked with a smile.

"Like! Very much like that! I almost got cheated by you two! Come on...... Stop acting here. Let's take things out. 10,000 yuan, one more will not be given. The expert said.

"It's in my hands, but I'm not going to sell it to you. Needless to say, 10,000 yuan, even if you pay 200 million, I won't sell it. Liu Tao said.

"Haha! Did I hear me right? You're talking about 200 million? The expert couldn't help but laugh. Not only him, but also the clerks next to him laughed.

"You're talking about 200 million Zimbabwean dollars. 200 million is a few dozen dollars. The expert couldn't help but scoff.

"I'm talking about Huaxia coins. Of course, you can not believe it. I'm too lazy to explain it to you here. Liu Tao said lightly.

"I know the doctor from the psychiatric department of Beijing Hospital, would you like to contact you?" I think you really should check it out here. The expert pointed to his head.

"I don't need to. You should go and see it, so as not to come out again and be embarrassed. Liu Tao said with a smile.

"Where's that box? You have the ability to show everyone how much it is worth. There are two of my colleagues upstairs, just in time for them to come over and help with the identification. The expert said.

"They're at a similar level, so there's no need for that. Well, since you want to see it so much, I'll let you see it for a long time. Liu Tao took out the box as he spoke.

Although there are not many guests who come to Rong Bao Zhai, everyone saw this kind of thing, and they quickly surrounded them.

"How much is this box worth? Let's give an estimate. The expert said to the crowd.

"I think it's worth thirty or fifty thousand."

"Three or five thousand is about the same."

"No more than 100,000 at most."

There are many opinions.

"See? Could it be that so many pairs of eyes are not as good as your own? The expert said proudly. Anyway, there weren't many guests today, so he just happened to have some fun.

"What's the use of so many pairs of eyes combined? The truth is often in the hands of a few. Is there paint? Liu Tao asked.

"What are you looking for paint for?" The expert was stunned for a moment and asked.

"Don't you want to see how much this box is worth? Without the paint, I wouldn't have been able to restore the box to its original appearance. Liu Tao shrugged his shoulders and said.

The "paint ......" expert seemed to understand something, and his face suddenly changed.

"Looks like you've thought of something. In this way, your level is better than I thought. Liu Tao said with a smile.

"Bring the paint!" The expert hurriedly shouted.

Soon, a bucket of paint was placed in front of Liu Tao.

Liu Tao carefully used a brush to paint the entire inside and outside of the box.

When the paint was dry, he tapped it lightly with the other end of the brush. Suddenly, pieces of paint fell.

The paint is certainly not the layer of paint that was just applied. Inside the paint, there was another layer of black stuff.

This kind of thing is enamel.

When the enamel was completely faded, a jade box appeared in front of everyone flawlessly.

"What a beautiful box! It's a masterpiece of work! The expert couldn't help but admire.

The eyes of the surrounding guests were straight. Some people took out their phones and prepared to take pictures.

"Don't shoot! Just take a look. Liu Tao said to the guest who wanted to take a picture.

When the other party saw him say this, he could only give up.

Hearing that a perfect jade box appeared on the first floor, the clerks on the second floor and the experts on the third floor also rushed over.

When everyone saw the jade box, they couldn't take their eyes off it.

The jade box in front of me is so beautiful! It's a hundred times better than these jade stones in their shop! No, a thousandfold!

"What is the origin of this jade box? You must know that although there are many ancient jade boxes, there are few that can be compared with this. The expert said with a frown.

"Speaking of this jade box, there are some origins. This jade box is a piece of beautiful jade that the first emperor sent people to search for the strange mountains and rivers in the world. Then this jade box was made by Ouyang Buping, the top jade master of the Qin Dynasty. Liu Tao said.

"Ouyang Buping?" The expert's face changed dramatically.

"Yes. Ouyang Buping, the first jade master of the Qin Dynasty. His work has now been lost, and only a few moments of information can be gleaned from some ancient texts. Liu Tao nodded and said.

"How did you know he built this box? Is there any markings on it? "The expert's mouth is wide open. In front of Liu Tao, his level of appreciation is like that of a kindergarten child. What's ridiculous is that he just thought that the other party was just a stupid master with many money. It's really Luban's front door with an axe, and it's embarrassing to throw it at grandma's house.

According to historical records, the jade created by Ouyang Buping has his unique mark on it. Look at what is engraved in the cracks of this jade box? Of course, it should not be visible with the naked eye. You'd better take a magnifying glass with a larger multiple. Liu Tao said with a smile.

The expert quickly found a magnifying glass and looked at it carefully.

As a result, he saw the four characters Ouyang Buping written in traditional Chinese.

Four very small words. It is not visible to the naked eye at all. If it weren't for the magnifying glass of modern technology, I'm afraid it would be difficult to see clearly.

"There must have been no magnifying glass in the Qin Dynasty. I really don't know how Ouyang Buping engraved his name. That's brilliant! The expert couldn't help but admire.

"There's a lot of stuff that can't be explained by science. If Ouyang Buping is still alive, maybe you can get an answer from his mouth. Liu Tao said with a smile.

"I have one more question. Since you have to use a magnifying glass to see the four words, how do you see them? Doubts were written on the expert's face.

"This is my private matter, and I don't need to tell you. You should know who's the fool by now, right? Liu Tao said with a smile.

"It's unbelievable. How exactly do you do that? Even Mr. Lin Guorong may not have such a level. The expert said in amazement.

"I've just said it's my private business. You should all read it! I'm going to put my stuff away and take it away. Liu Tao said to everyone.

As soon as everyone heard that he was going to take things away, they suddenly felt very big regret in their hearts. It's a shame that something so good can't be looked at twice.

"You're really lucky. This time I was the one who hit the eye. The expert's eyes were filled with loss. If he hadn't bid too low just now, I'm afraid he wouldn't have let this thing fall into the hands of the other party. The funny thing is that he thought that the two of them were singing double reeds, and he missed this opportunity in vain.

"Goodbye, everybody." Liu Tao packed up his things, then turned around and left.

As soon as he left Rurong Bao Zhai, someone had already quietly made a phone call.

You must know that many of the guests who come to Rong Bao Zhai to buy things are dignitaries. When they saw that Liu Tao had such a treasure in his hands, they were naturally reluctant to let it go.

The jade box created by Ouyang Buping can definitely be called a rare treasure. If you can own such an item, you can't sleep even at night.

Of course, if these people figure out the normal means to get it from Liu Tao, it is definitely wishful thinking. You must know that Liu Tao is a super-rich man, and he doesn't care about how much money the other party spends. Even if the other party pays a billion yuan, he will never sell it.

As a result, when Liu Tao had just left Rong Bao Zhai and was about to call a taxi, someone stopped him.

"Sir, please stay." The other party said politely.

"Is there anything wrong with you?" Liu Tao glanced at the other party and asked.

"I wonder if Mr. can cut the jade box just now? I love it so much. The other party said.

"I'm not going to sell it." Liu Tao shook his head.

"I can pay a lot of money. You just make a price, it's not bad. "The other party has a lot of money.

"You're not bad for money, and I'm not bad for money. Do you have anything else to do? If nothing else, please give way. Liu Tao smiled slightly and said.

Seeing that Liu Tao didn't buy it, the other party's face suddenly turned long.

Since Liu Tao refuses to cut his love, he naturally has to think of another way.

This solution is to rob. (To be continued.) )
